    E4 keep running an advert some shite program about the feud between Kanye West and Jay Z - I've been watching E4 since around a quarter to 4 and they've run the ad 3 times. Fuck off.

    And I forgot butter on the third trip:(

    TA, I completely underestimated how I would feel at the recent death of one of the OH's oldest and closest friends, can't get my head around it at all :(

    People calling each other 'caller' on forums trying to be astute but failing miserably.
    Videos on Twitter of people trying to be like the Big Brother contestants and guess what? Yup, failing miserably.
    Trying not to get a take away and not sure if it will or will not, fail miserably.

    Like on forums, people addressing each other as: 'oh go on caller'.

    The singing in BB this year, basically everyone on Twitter is copying the songs and behaviour and putting up videos of themselves doing these things but it looks really silly.

    People who put all their shopping in their carrier bags, and then the bags in the trolley before looking at the cashier and realizing they must pay and then they take their handbag from the trolley, open it, get their purse, open it, check how much cash they have and then get their debit card and put it in the reader and proceed to pay. They then reverse the process putting the card in the purse, the purse in the bag and the bag in the trolley before moving away from the till.

    I've been doing all my own shopping for 20 yrs and have never seen a man do this, it is always women I've seen behave in this way.
    I'm not saying men don't do it but I've never seen it. Ever. So, make of that what you will. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,039 ✭✭✭✭retro:electro


    Maybe because men don't have handbags and purses :pac:

    I hate stingey people. I've been out a few times with a friend of mine and we usually go for dinner for a special occasion. I love wine and will always order a bottle of Wine before I Even look At the menu. I'd have the whole bottle gone by dessert time so it's safe to say I need no help. This particular girl never orders a glass at the initial drinks order but eyes up my wine bottle joking she's going To Chug It, asking if it's nice etc

    First few times i fell for it and offer her a glass which of course she accepts. So it ends up us having 2 glasses each and when the bill comes I'm left to pay for whole bottle.

    Last couple of times she does her little routine and I don't offer a glass so She'll eventually order 1 glass of the house white and it does her for the entire time

    TA: can't pop my ears so have made my own saline solution that I had to snort out of my hands. Had no baking soda so used breadaoda and now I have a horrible bitter/salty taste at the back of my throat and my ears are still in bits


    Fuçk you ears

    Slept late today so TA1: woke up with a sore back and TA2: won't sleep properly tonight.
    Oh for my teens and early twenties when I could compensate for lost sleep by spending 12 hours plus in bed without consequences!

    Thank you for posting this, because it does my head in :eek: They look shocked that they actually have to pay for stuff. I put the Visa card in one pocket, shopping list and keys in another pocket. No need for handbag/purse, and both hands free for shopping and packing.

    Fuyou ears

    Lexie, baking soda (not baking powder), bread soda and sodium bicarbonate are the same thing, and that's the taste they're supposed to have - not that it's any consolation... Saline solution is water and salt in a specific percentage, and you can make your own by boiling water with the right amount of salt in it (obviously not to be used for injections!).

    Sorry to about your ears all the same.

    After finally getting my ear relieved with a cotton bud I pull it out to see the bud saturated with a weird pink mucous/blood.

    TA 1: it didn't help
    TA 2: can't stop sneezing which is making my ear hurt into my jaw and neck
    TA 3: want my breakfast
    TA 4: can't sleep
    TA 5: debating on putting garlic into my ear as it's supposed to be a good home remedy but knowing me and my special skill of fücking everything I touch up, I'm afraid to
    TA 6: when I've too much time to think and tonight's worry is rats climbing up walls and into toilets
    TA 7: feel drunk haven't been drinking
    TA 8: my eldest dog sleeps as close to my bedroom as he can get. He has bad hips and doesn't sleep on his bed, which makes me feel mad guilty.
    TA 9: thinking about what will happen if they die on me I don't think I could bear it :(
    TA 10: YouTube flicks off when I change tabs on my iPad. No tunes

    My ears get blocked like that sometimes and I use hot water and olive oil(obvs not too hot but more than lukewarm) on a cotton bud(not a q-tip)...dip the cotton bud in the oil and put it in your ear..if anything is blocking it,it will release it(hopefully).


    TA...at my own ear...still fcuked after 5yrs...burst eardrum never been right since.

    King anxiety here, deep breaths, try distract yourself with "grounding" like check your surroundings count whats there etc.
